The investment seeks to provide income and capital appreciation. Under normal market conditions, the fund?s bond portfolio invests at least 40% of its total assets in investment grade, intermediate U.S. treasuries and TIPS and at least 40% of its total assets in ex-U.S. sovereign bonds, including investment grade and non-investment grade bonds issued by developed and emerging market governments with short and intermediate durations. The investment adviser intends to spend approximately one percent of the fund?s total assets per month to purchase put options.
